episode The Entrepreneurial Rollercoaster: Wins, Mindset & Mental Wealth artwork

The Entrepreneurial Rollercoaster: Wins, Mindset & Mental Wealth

Welcome to Work Together, Worlds Apart In this episode of Work Together, Worlds Apart, Lee and Mike dive into the importance of celebrating success, protecting your mental health, and surrounding yourself with the right people as an entrepreneur. Too often in business, wins are quickly brushed aside as the focus shifts straight onto the next goal. Lee and Mike explore why recognising progress matters, how creating systems around celebration can improve motivation and mindset, and why success feels different when you actually allow yourself to enjoy it. The conversation also shines a light on the realities of mental health in entrepreneurship—from managing stress and navigating emotional highs and lows to the daily habits that help maintain balance. Exercise, hydration, mindset routines, accountability, and strong support networks all play a role in sustaining long-term success. They also discuss the power of building what they call a “mental wealth team” — people who challenge you, support you, teach you, and genuinely want to see you grow. Whether it’s mentors, partners, friends, or communities built through podcasting and connection, the people around you can shape both your business and personal life more than you realise. This episode is an honest reminder that growth isn’t just about working harder—it’s about building the right systems, protecting your mindset, and learning to appreciate the journey along the way.

The Power of Patience, Partnerships, and Diversification in Business with Kevin Sharkey

Welcome to Work Together, Worlds Apart In this episode, Kevin Sharkey opens up about the journey from starting out in accounting at Grant Thornton to building a diverse and successful property business portfolio. It’s an honest conversation about patience, persistence, and learning how to make calculated moves in business without losing sight of the bigger picture. Kevin shares the highs, the setbacks, and the lessons that shaped his entrepreneurial mindset — including the experience of seeing a business enter administration and how that changed the way he approaches risk, partnerships, and long-term growth. The conversation dives deep into property development, diversification, and the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people. From residential and commercial investments to storage and hospitality ventures, Kevin explains why sustainable success often comes from thinking beyond one income stream. There’s also plenty of practical insight for business owners and aspiring investors, covering everything from cash flow management and passive income to trusting your instincts and maintaining balance outside of work. This episode is packed with grounded advice, real business lessons, and a refreshing reminder that success is rarely overnight. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

episode Is Work-Life Balance a Myth or a Skill? artwork

Is Work-Life Balance a Myth or a Skill?

In this honest and relatable episode of Work Together, Worlds Apart, Lee and Mike unpack the reality behind “work-life balance” — and why it’s not the fixed destination many think it is. They dive into the daily push and pull of entrepreneurship, where priorities constantly shift and balance feels more like a moving scale than a steady state. From evolving responsibilities with age and family life to the pressures of growing a business, this conversation shines a light on what it really takes to stay grounded. Lee and Mike also share the personal habits and mindset shifts that help them manage stress, protect their mental and physical health, and keep showing up consistently, not just for their work, but for the people who matter most. This episode is a reminder that balance isn’t about perfection, it’s about awareness, adaptation, and building a life that aligns with your values. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
